Re: [Dovecot] Postfix, Dovecot, SASL, and Virtual Domains
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 If you're setting up a new server, I highly recommend looking at the HOWTO that Purple Hat has at: http://www.purplehat.org/?page_id=4 I did most of what they suggested. I was migrating a host to BSD and re-doing my postfix/dovecot infrastructure. It was clear enough that I could change just what I needed to. If you are starting from scratch, just set it up the way they say to.

[Dovecot] Stupid question: Need to increase some connection limits
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 When I switch from one network to another, I sometimes get dovecot rejecting my connections. The error I get in the log is similar to: Sep 22 15:23:22 hostname dovecot: imap-login: Maximum number of connections from user+IP exceeded: user=user, method=METHOD, rip=1.2.3.4, lip=5.6.7.8 So the question is what parameter increases that? My five minutes of looking has failed me.

Re: [Dovecot] Integrating Dovecot SASL into Postfix
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 - Running Linux OS Ubuntu 7.04 - Currently running Postfix version 2.3.8 - No virtual users or domains . Every system user has a mail account (to create a new mail account i have to create a new system user. I belive this is called PAM, right?). Just follow the directions in the HOWTOs. Just so you know, I used to do this on my server running Mac OS X with Postfix 2.3 and Dovecot 1.0.7. Last weekend, I upgraded my server to a new machine running FreeBSD, Postfix 2.5, and Dovecot 1.0.x and then 1.1. My config files moved over with no hitches. The Dovecot upgrade required me to change one parameter name in the config file, but once I found that on the wiki, it was all flawless. I would be more informative if I'd ever done it on Linux.

Re: [Dovecot] IMAP freezing on OSX

I'm not certain if that's a root cause, though, or simply a consequence of opening an affected folder to perform the move. I have a spam folder with a large number (1) of messages in it, and trying to file stuff in there is a relatively surefire way to generate the problem. Try if dotlock_use_excl=yes helps. That setting was made to fix hard linking problems with HFS. Otherwise http://wiki.dovecot.org/Debugging/ProcessTracing might show up something useful when looking at what imap process is doing at the time it seems to be hanging. Is this a setting in dovecot.conf? I'm using all the defaults, there, myself.

Re: [Dovecot] LSUB vs LIST (hacked Apple Mail problem)
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I'm using Apple Mail to Dovecot and have no real issues with IMAP to Dovecot. Certainly not as many as others. I'm also doing IMAP to Exchange and to Communigate Pro, and Exchange sucks royally, but Dovecot and CGP work fine. At work, we do IMAP proxying for crypto, and let me tell you we know lots about the idiocies in every client there is. Mail.app has had some major revisions in some of the point releases of 10.4, so what you thought six months ago isn't necessarily so now. Every IMAP client we know of (and we've seen them all) does crazy things. It's really an IMAP problem that there are several ways to do anything. Thunderbird has its own idiosyncrasies, as does Mulberry and anything else.
